Here is a script on which I work.
It is intended to create mapping coordinates on a shape.
There are just few mapping coordinates system : planar, box, cylindrical, shperical and face. And none is capable to do it on already deformed objects.
This algorithm can adapt itself to the shape.
here is the unwrap of the circle… nice shape, isn’t it ?
There are still some limitations at the moment but most of the common shapes are accepted. I still have many problems to be resolved before ending it definitively… I have to make sure that my routines modify correctly the UVW… I have no undo for the moment…
Does anybody know programs which act in a similar way?
Do you have advices or remarks?
ThE_JacO gives very interesting explanations in this thread onto some software which already make it, as XSI (post #6)
